Wash, play and squash

Yesterday I walked past our car and noticed this on the back window. It says "clin me" which was supposed to be "clean me" but as Rachel can't spell all that well yet, she was caught out. hehehe
So after church the girls helped Dad clean the car. It was Hannah's first time to be involved and she really enjoyed it. I think Ruth ended up being the most helpful cleaner though.
After the younger girls woke from their afternoon nap we headed down to the squash courts. The one big advantage for the girls is that they are next to the part. So Ruth is always quite excited to go to squash.
Ruth and Hannah enjoying the swings.

They have a new play house with this nice climbing wall which Ruth does really well on.
Rachel is behind her looking through the telescope.
Our three precious girls.
Ruth's arms have gotten so much stronger.
And then the girls play around while Brendon and I play squash. We had taken a break this week as I hurt my leg on Tuesday. So it was good to get back today and have to pain in my leg.
They are lovely courts with glass backs so the girls can see us (and we them) which helps.
And to get thanked for her help with the younger two, Rachel gets to play a bit when we are finished. Last weekend Brendon had told her that if she wants to play squash she needs to practice on her swing ball - which she spent hours on while the girls slept today.
This is actually not a fair photo though. She actually did really well and managed to hit the ball quite often. This was such a funny shot though and when Brendon saw it he said "this is squash not ballet" (with a big grin on his face).
We had a lovely day.
